Fuding has no county since the Qing Dynasty. Xiapu County established Fuding County after persuading Confucianism to separate Wanghai, Renyu, Yaoxiang and Lianjiang counties. Residents are Han nationality and ethnic minorities (including She nationality and Yi nationality-Quti). Anyone who moves here from foreign countries can speak the dialect of their ancestors' hometown. But after a long time, the tone has changed a little. Fuding dialect has a complex accent and can be divided into six systems, namely Tongshan dialect, Minnan dialect, Fuzhou dialect, Tingzhou dialect, Xinghua dialect and She dialect.

Tongshan dialect belongs to Fuzhou dialect family, which is spoken by Gao, Cao, Xu and Wang. Pronunciation is characterized by neat teeth and no pinch of tongue sounds, such as: fish in the wrong place, rain in the wrong place. Residents in the coastal areas of Chengguan have several unique voices: the road is called (brother), the factory used to be called thorns, the copper mountain is called street (brother), the valley is called ruler, the sea is called gloomy, the stone is called Shi Lei, the scream is scary (bloody), and the fertile soil is called brush down. People in most towns and villages in the province, such as Tongcheng, Dianxia, Berlin, Nodding, Guanyang, (Fan Shi) Xi and Xiamen, speak Tongshan dialect with the same accent but slightly different. For example, it is called "duck sauce and duck pay" in Tongshan dialect, "duck sauce and duck pay" in Qinyu, and "duck sauce and duck pay" in Guanyang and Seventeenth. Playing riddles, an elder, said that "there is no food and grass inside, and there is no reinforcements outside". The answer is the four words in the 17th Capital Dialect: "If you lose, you will lose". According to the above language distribution, Tongshan dialect is the representative dialect of Fuding. Besides, in places bordering Xiapu, such as Pu Xian, Dujia, Chixi, Wuyang, Qingkeng, Dayang, Haiyang and Houping, people speak Xia Ding accent. In the border areas of Taishun, such as Guanyang Town (Muzhe) Building in Shi Die Township, Shen Qing, Tianzhu, Nanxi and Yang Jiao, people's voices all have Tai Ding accent.

Another feature of Fuding dialect is that many adjectives overlap, such as "white snow, yellow, orange, green, deep liquid, blue and enclosed"; Describe the sweet, spicy, bitter fishing, salty firewood, astringent chirp, delicious, smelly steamed bread and other flavors. Describe the figure such as straight pen, oblique pen, tall and slim, short female, etc. Describe the severity such as light ass, heavy weight (reading flat voice) and so on. Another example is to use the word "yellow" to express fear and sigh, such as "yellow sky", "yellow horn", "yellow horn god", "Huang Tianye" and "Huang Tianmu". People who don't know the details of Fuding dialect think this is a member of the royal family. Others use "dead people" to describe things, such as dead people are heavy, dead people are light, dead people are deep, dead people are clear, dead people are salty, dead people talk, dead people are fat, dead people are bad, dead people are stupid, dead people are loud, dead people are hard, dead people are straight, dead people stink and so on. This is the ultimate meaning of using the word dead to describe things. Fuding people are used to using such various adjectives as words to enhance the language effect, which can be heard anytime and anywhere, which is rare in other provinces and counties.

Fuding speaks Fuzhou dialect. One is Qin Yu. According to legend, in ancient times, there was a family named Qin, whose ancestral home was Fuzhou and lived in Qinyu. They all speak Fuzhou dialect and have not left their ancestors. Later, his surname came to live in Qin Yu, and he took care of his feelings. He is so obedient that he greets people. In order to show his affection, he loves to speak the other dialect, so he also speaks Fuzhou dialect after being assimilated by him. First, the fishermen in Taishan are all from Fuqing, Changle, and they speak Fuzhou accent, but the word "I" in Qinyu is called "Wei" and the word "I" in Taishan is called "pseudo".

Minnan Language Family: Most people in Guanling, Qianqi, Shacheng Town, Lingtou in Tongcheng, Ruiyun in Xiamen, Yang Guo in Berlin, Cangbian in Shi Die, Zhuyang, Chetou, Feng Dan and Kukou Village speak Minnan, but some people can speak Tongshan dialect at the same time, and only a few people can speak Tongshan dialect completely.

There are three places in Tingzhou dialect system: 1, Shuangxi village near the upper reaches of Kukou, where Zhao's family lives. They originally moved from Tingzhou, and now they still speak Tingzhou dialect. 2. There is a man named Shen in Xiaoxi Natural Village, Chixi Village, Xixi Town. The previous generation moved in from western Fujian, and the descendants still speak Tingzhou dialect. 3. Wanyao Village, which is five miles away from Diantou Town, is inhabited by hundreds of people, most of whom are surnamed Yu. The whole village speaks Tingzhou dialect.

Xinghua dialect system: People in Aoyao area across the sea from Shacheng can speak Xinghua dialect. It is said that fishermen in Puxian moved here a generation ago.

Minority systematic language: Fuding has two minority languages. One is the She nationality, who lives in various villages in the city and mostly in mountain villages. Men and women work hard and get equal pay for equal work. She nationality distributed in Fuding has five surnames: Lei, Lan, Zhong, Wu and Li, but one surname is missing: Pan. In terms of clothing, except for some She ethnic groups in rural Xiamen who still retain their original clothing, the rest of the towns and villages are now competing to follow the fashion. Basically, like the Han nationality, they don't wear their old colorful and eye-catching lace clothes. Its language is still the national unified She dialect, but when communicating with Han people, they all speak the local Han dialect. Another ethnic minority is the Miao people-Quti people, who are residents of inland rivers and coastal areas in Guangdong, Guangxi and Fujian, and specialize in fishing or transshipment. Before liberation, they were particularly oppressed by feudal reactionary rule. "Quti climbed up the mountain and killed him, but he didn't see the official." Only ships are allowed to live on the water, and they are not allowed to go ashore to build houses. There are really no tiles on it, and there is no space below. The same is true of Shacheng people, without exception. After liberation, a fishery brigade was established to develop fishery production, improve fishing technology and equipment, and continuously improve production and life. Not only new buildings have been built on the shore, but also hospitals and schools have been built.

Shacheng people's surnames are Ou, Lin and Lian. Their costumes are the same as those of the Han nationality, and their language is similar to that of Fu.
